1. Every day I spend my time, drinking  wine, feeling fine,

                 C                  Em         D        G                  B7

    waiting here to find a sign that I can understand, yes  I am.

                                             Em             D                       A

    In the days between the hours, ivory towers, bloody flowers,

                        C                   Em             D         G                 B7 

    push their heads in to the air, I don’t care if I ever know, there I go.

 

              Em                         G             A7                                C

    Don’t push your love too far, your wounds won’t leave a scar,

             Em                        D            G                  - B7

    right now is where you are in a broken dream.

           Em                            G            A7                              C

    Did someone bow their head, did someone break the bread,

              Em                 D               G                   - B7  

    good people are in bed before nine o’clock.

2. On the pad before my eyes, paper cries, telling lies,

             C                  Em                   D               G                  B7

    the promises you gave from the grave of a broken heart, hmm.

                                       Em                    D                 A

    Every day I spend my time, drinking wine, feeling fine,

                   C                 Em        D        G                 B7

    waiting here to find a sign that I can understand, yes I am.
